12 Ways to Know You Might Be a Mommy


Most of these have to do with being to a mommy to a baby specifically, but parents of older kids probably still remember what I'm talking about.

You might be a mommy if...

...you know that car seats have expiration dates.
...most of your reading material is printed on cardboard.
...after being thrown up on, you clean up the baby before you clean up yourself.
...you find yourself swaying....when the baby is nowhere around.
...you know that there are more than one size of pacifier.
...you get excited when diapers are on sale.
...you own miniature hangers.
...you name stuffed animals regularly. (Ok, so that one might just be me.)
...you talk about yourself in the third person....several times a day. (Momma's gonna get you!)
...you know what the ratio of formula to water is without even thinking about it.
...you plan your alcohol consumption well in advance.
...your dates are based around someone else's schedule....your babysitter's.

Naps














Why is the phrase "taking a nap"? It's as if I'm not allowed to have a nap and I need to take it for some reason. I think that after taking care of a baby most of the day, and getting up during the night with him, I am fully entitled to a nap every once in a while. Therefore, I will no longer say "taking a nap." The phrase will now be "having a nap." Join me in changing the world one phrase at a time.
